and as you can see by the picture, its a happy clam, so anyone out there wondering if it can be done the answer is yes, regardless of what others might say. the real question is are you up to it?

I strongly disagree. I've kept a lot of clams under a lot of different situations, and yours is most definately hyper-extending his mantle, a reaction to low light situations. Not a good sign, in my experience.

It was a PC and I had around a 2" sand layer.

its shown growth over the last year, never gapes, reacts to changes of light, and has not lost a bit of color....so what if it is hyperextending, its otherwise fine.

I was not referring to your clam. In fact, I don't even understand, you have not posted in this thread before.
